During the weekend, I reluctantly watched the Taylor Swift concert. It was fun while it lasted, but my legs were sore and gooey afterwards. Funny because the crowd were mostly kids, who some were even with their nannies toting them around. Gosh. I would give life and limb to be in those yayas' position, having privileged enough to have a VIP seat while I withered away in an Upper Box B, standing room only.
That aside, before the concert itself, my companion and I killed time in the nearby mall. And peculiarly, I was reminded of you. What's new right? There is rarely a day that passes by when I don't encounter something that reminds me of you. Did we share so much fond memories that it is so hard to detach myself with them that I beg to ask, is the love that remains only a love of the memories or the love of the man? That, I don't know how to answer honestly. Anyway, I was there in the mall as mentioned and while strolling, I remember that that was the 2nd time I stepped into that mall, the first being with you and a friend. Do you still remember we had to go to a wake of someone before? It was so far away and I wasn't allowed to bring a car just yet. Then vague circumstances in between, you asked if I wanted to watch a movie, or something like that. Problem though is going home. My house is too far away, you said. So as a compromise of sorts, you will bring me home to my condo unit, to which I agreed on. But since you had to meet some people first in the mall I was talking about, you tagged me along. I still remember the Taco Bell. We had snacks there right? Afterwards, you left me alone with our friend while you went into official business.
Thinking about that, I am not sure now if I was elated or somewhere in between. We watched a horror movie, the three of us and funny because our friend said he was the third wheel then. I guess that was the first and maybe last time we will do something like that, right? And being in the mall...that mall, struck me because it was a place we shared.
